A Magistrates’ Court sitting in Iyaganku, Ibadan, on Wednesday remanded Temitope Arinola, 45, and Mufutau Kola, 42 alleged to have strangled and dismembered one Mrs Eniola Shakirat.
The defendants, who have no fixed address, are charged with conspiracy and murder.
The magistrate, Mrs Adebola Adeola, who refused take their pleas for want of jurisdiction, directed the police to return the case file to Oyo State Director of Public Prosecutions for advice.
She then adjourned the case until July 30 for mention.
The prosecutor, Insp Iyabo Oladoyin, told the court that the defendants committed the offences on May 17, 2024 along Akinyele- Ojoo Expressway, Ibadan.
She alleged that the defendants unlawfully caused the death of one by strangling and dismembering her.
She said that the offences contravene Sections 516 and 324 of the Criminal Laws of Oyo State, 2000.
